Ever wanted your own home golf course? In Melbourne’s northeast, a mega property dotted with three private putting greens and even a half basketball court is turning heads on the market.
The sprawling 7950sq m property at 53-55 Rosehill Rd, Lower Plenty, was originally built in 1930 by famed Toorak architect Marcus Martin, known for his restrained modernist work and for designing many houses in the blue-chip suburb.

In the past two years, the four-bedroom home was completely renovated by its vendors to transform it into a glamorous and contemporary space, complete with herringbone timber and marble floors, copper gutters and a roof made with terracotta shingle tiles imported from France.
They also added three home putting greens, a mod grass half basketball court and an in-ground swimming pool, making it the perfect place for a family retreat.
Morrison Kleeman Eltham director Rocco Montanaro said the expansive property had attracted families with equestrian interests due to the size of the land.
“It’s on two acres and it’s quite spectacular,” Mr Montanaro said. “They’ve just finished fully renovating it with materials imported from overseas.”
Inside, a sleek kitchen boasts marble benchtops, bespoke cabinetry with leather handles, and Smeg appliances, while the main bedroom upstairs comes with a marble ensuite and opens out onto a private balcony.
French doors in the home office, lounge room and library on the ground floor access the lush gardens.
Among the gardens is a heated in-ground swimming pool that sits beside a pool house or guest cottage with a marble bathroom, kitchenette, and living room with an open fireplace.
The entire property is listed with a $3.6m-$3.95m asking price.
